Basic tool profileNotchNook Pro: Claude Code and Codex Controls in the Mac Notch
NotchNook Pro is a macOS utility that brings Claude Code and Codex session monitoring and approval controls into the notch area. It is a companion to your coding agents, alongside music, calendar and file widgets; it does not replace the agents or their accounts.
Information is based on public sources, not hands-on testing; confirm current features and pricing with the vendor.
Choose Pro for agent controls
The official Pro and Classic comparison places Claude Code and Codex approval controls in Pro. Classic covers the older music, calendar and file workflow. The Pro changelog describes following sessions, approving commands and responding to agent questions. Check that the agent and permissions you use are supported before buying.
Requirements and trial
The official comparison lists Pro for macOS 14.6 or later on Apple silicon; Classic also supports Intel. A physical notch is not required. The product site advertises a 48-hour trial without a card. Install through the publisher and test an existing agent session on your own Mac.
What the license covers
On November 6, 2026, the official USD comparison displayed Pro at $3 per month or $19 for a lifetime license. Regional prices and offers may differ: confirm the edition, currency, renewal terms and device allowance at checkout. An app license is separate from any Claude Code or Codex subscription or model usage charges.
A useful first check
During the trial, follow a harmless agent task and check whether the notch clearly shows which session needs attention. Read the command and target before approving it. If you only want music and calendar widgets, compare Classic first; if you need a coding agent itself, start with our coding assistant guide.
